Central Florida Community Arts begins its 2014 Spotlight Series with a one-woman cabaret show titled "Resolutions."

Melissa Mason Braillard will perform an eclectic night of music, which CFCArts says showcases "the risks we take, decisions we make and resolutions we break."

Braillard has worked as a professional actor and singer around Central Florida for more than 10 years in roles with Orlando Shakespeare Theater, Mad Cow Theatre, the Orlando Philharmonic, Walt Disney World and others. She received a master's degree in musical theater from the University of Central Florida.

She first joined Central Florida Community Arts for its concert version of "Titanic: The Musical." Since then, she has been featured as a soloist in the CFCArts choir and is currently the senior director of the group's Children/Youth Arts program.

Guaranteed seating can be purchased in advance for $12 (credit card/Paypal) or, if available, can be purchased for $10 at the door (cash/check only). For ticketing questions, contact Sarah Mattingly at Sarah.Mattingly@cfcommunityarts.com. Doors open 30 minutes before show time, and all seating is general admission.
